I just upgraded from 6.x-2.10 to 6.x-2.11. In 2.10, we could use HTML entities in the More link text. For example, we sometimes use "More »". However, Views is now converting this to "More »" so it is rendered in the browser to the user as "More »".

This is similar to the following report:
http://drupal.org/node/832786

In this case, HTML was desired and it was pointed out that this might be a security issue. However, I imagine other users might need to use HTML entities. For example, how is someone suppose to incorporate characters with umlauts and accents?

Fortunately, because our Drupal content is being stored and served up as UTF-8, we can simply use the character "»". But what are you suppose to do when another character encoding is being used???

Yes this bug, which is no bug!!, was introduced on the sec-release. If you can use "»" then it's fine from my perspective but i'm not sure about it.

I think this shouldn't happen, right? Afaik utf-8 is the default storage for mysql 5.x

I would suggest to mark this issue as fixed.
